PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE.
Apothecaries and LIQUOR Dealers
Generally Taking Out Licenses.
How 1t Is Hoped to Evade the New
Liquor Law.
One Of the Maine Deputies to be
Dispensed. With.

AUGUSTA, May 22.-It now turns out that
apothecaries and retail liquor dealers are
generally taking out United States licenses
in this division of the Maine internal reve-
nue. district excepting in a few instances In
some Of the small towns where the business
is light druggists have not paid the tax, as
they would not incur the risk of imprison-
ment for the small returns obtained. In
Augusta, it is stated, but few, if any, deal
ers have continued their licenses. In Lewis
ton some half dozen druggists and in Rock
land several have not obtained the United
States stamp. This means that the dealers
believe they can escape the new law making
the holding of licenses r1inaa Jdcie evidence
and from present appearances it would seem
that their expectations are not without some
foundation. 1t is reported that fictitious
names are being used, but the law requires
that the real name of the dealer shall appear
in the application. This is obyiated, it is
said, by forwarding the applications to
Washington, where they cannot be inspect
ed as evidence. Thus only false name
appears ON the collectors books. The dep
uties, however, will probably be summoned
lubo tuc COuIlo W SlNt tVlueuCc TeldUlVe TO
the payment of the special taxes, and if they
possess any information regarding the real
names of the dealers, as it is supposed they
must, it will be reqired Of them. The order
issued by the President that the Maine and
Vermont. internal revenue districts be con-
solidated with the New Hampshire district
adds a new phase to the situation. Collector
Redman will have to retire, his office will be
closed and the records transferred to the
New Hampshire official, which will proba-
bly, be located at Portsmouth. This will add
difficulty in obtaining copies for use as evil
dence and make it impossible.to summon the
collector into court. 1t is expected that one
of the Maine deputies will be dispensed
with and two divisions made. with possibly
one or more of the southwest counties oper-
ated by the Portsmouth Office.
AS this is the season when commercial fer
tilizers are being extensively sold in the
State, samples are being taken at many diff
ferent points for testing at the Experiment
Station at 0rono. Prof. Jordan has charge
of the work. More brands of fertilizers are
on sale this year than ever before.

Another large crowd of interested specta-

many applications from those who wish to
be in the near vicinity of the pool.
Some of the sportsmen arriving here are

THE YACHT THISTLE.
Story of the Origin of the Roat-The
Craft Weathers a Gale.

NEWARK, N. j., May 23.-It is just known
that the Scotch yacht Thistle was built by
syndicate of Scotch yachtsmen, with William
Clark, the millionaire cotton spinner of this
city at the head. After the Mayflower won
the race last fall, Mr.. Clark went to Scotland
and with his brother, John Clark, of Pals
ley, and a few Scottish gentlemen, proposed
to build yacht in honor of the Britons. 1t
was decided that James Bell should be their
representative, and G. l.. Watson should
build the boat Mr.. Clark declines to say
who the other members of the syndicate are.
Watson came to this country as Mr.. Clark's
guest last fall, to take notes of the American
method of yacht building. The Thistle cost
about $4,000.
LONDON, May 23.-The new racing yacht
Thistle lost her bowsprit and was otherwise
damaged in the run from the Clyde to COwes
during the gale of Friday. On the trip the
Thistle rescued three men in life boat be-
longing to the steamer Harkaway, which
had foundered Sixteen lives were lost
when the steamer went down. The life-boat
originally carried six persons, but three sue
cumbed to privations.
